Siheyuan: All the birds want to die, I enjoy happiness

Of course he knew Xu Mengjie was interested in him, but Su Xingchen didn't really have much in mind for Xu Mengjie, and he was avoiding her, but she came to him. No, I have to discuss this with Xu Tian later, this is not a good thing.

Su Xingchen just sat between the two of them and watched the movie. The two of them didn't move much during the movie, and Su Xingchen was even less active. Everyone was busy watching the movie and didn't communicate much. Su Xingchen couldn't help but secretly feel lucky that it was the right choice to come and watch the movie.

After the movie ended, people in the theater began to disperse. Many people complained that they shouldn't have come to watch a movie today. The movie was good, but it was too cold inside. I believe that friends who have been to old movie theaters should know that the big theater on the first floor is quite cold in summer without air conditioning, not to mention winter in this era. Many people were so cold that they cursed.

The three of them followed the crowd out of the cinema's screening room. It was already half past four. Su Xingchen suggested, "Why don't we go get something to eat? It's quite cold out here, so it's perfect for some shabu-shabu."

"Okay, I'm fine with anything." Li Qingning nodded. She didn't care what she ate as long as she was with Su Xingchen.

"I'm fine with it too. I'm not picky. Let's go." Of course Xu Mengjie could agree. Sometimes when she had nothing to do, she would go to Donglaishun with Xu Tian to eat mutton hotpot.

"Then let's go to Donglaishun to eat mutton hotpot." Su Xingchen said as he walked out of the cinema hall first, while snowflakes had begun to fall outside.

"It's snowing." Su Xingchen couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the snow floating in front of him. It seemed that his arrival had finally affected everything in this world, but there didn't seem to be much change. This was also the first snow since he came to this world.

"No wonder it's so cold, it turns out it's about to snow. Let's go quickly so that it doesn't snow too heavily. It's still quite cold today." Xu Mengjie said as she wrapped her scarf around her neck and put her hands in her pockets.

"Okay, let's go quickly. If it rains heavily at night, I don't know how to send you two back." Su Xingchen thought that it would take more than twenty minutes to walk to Donglaishun.

The three of them walked carefully along the way. The snow had not yet accumulated and melted on the ground, so some sections of the road were still a bit slippery. Li Qingning and Xu Mengjie almost fell several times. If Su Xingchen hadn't been quick to hold them up, they would have definitely fallen. They stumbled along the way and finally arrived at Donglaishun. It was only a little after 5:00 today, but there were already quite a few people.

Su Xingchen pushed open the door and walked in, "Uncle Liu, is there any room left today?"

"Yes, how many people? Mengjie is here too. Don't worry, as long as there are no seats for you guys, I will find them for you." Uncle Liu said with a smile.

"Hello, Uncle Liu." When Xu Mengjie heard Uncle Liu calling her, she quickly greeted him.

"Okay, Uncle Liu, there are three of us in total, just find us a seat. It's cold today and there are quite a lot of people coming, so we'll be busy tonight." Su Xingchen looked at the bustling room, the whole room was filled with hot mist. It would be a treat to eat a bowl of mutton hotpot in a copper pot in such a cold day.

"Hey, just sit in your old seats. I don't know what's wrong with the weather this year. Why is it so cold? There are so many people coming here during this period." Uncle Liu said while shaking his head.

"Uncle Liu, you go ahead and do your work. The three of us will go over first."

"Uncle Liu is gone."

"Okay, go ahead. I'll ask someone to order food for you later." Uncle Liu nodded and said.

Su Xingchen and the other two walked inside and sat in the old seat where Xu Tian often stayed.

"Look at what you want to eat, let's order it right away." Su Xingchen said as he took off his coat. There was already a coal stove in the room and these small copper pots made Su Xingchen very warm, just like a heated kang.

"Then let's start with four pounds of hand-cut mutton, a plate of sesame cakes, and three heads of pickled garlic. Sister Qingning, is there anything you want to eat?" As she spoke, Xu Mengjie looked at Li Qingning.

"Then give me a plate of tripe and vermicelli." Li Qingning said to the waiter while looking at the menu.

"Okay, do you guys want to eat anything else?" The waiter here had a much better service attitude. That's because he saw that Shopkeeper Liu knew Su Xingchen and Xu Mengjie, so there was no need to treat him the same way to others.

"No need, just give this much for now, and we can add more later if it's not enough." Su Xingchen said as he saw that the two of them didn't plan to order any food.

"Okay, I'll go make some charcoal for you now."

Being bored waiting, Xu Mengjie simply pulled Li Qingning aside and started talking, "Sister Qingning, are you going to work tomorrow?"

"Yes, you have to go to work tomorrow morning. It's better when you are students." Li Qingning looked at Xu Mengjie and nodded.

"We will graduate in half a year, and we will have to go to work then. By the way, is your street office busy now?"

"It's not bad. It's still a bit busy at the end of the year. But we belong to the Women's Federation, so the work is less than that of the Street Office."

As they were talking, a plate of sesame cakes was brought up. Before they could take the cakes, they started putting coal in the pancakes. Then the clear soup hotpot was also brought up.

Seeing that the two of them couldn't reach the pancakes, Su Xingchen took a pancake and handed it to them, "Eat it. Eat a pancake to fill your stomach first."

Su Xingchen took a bite of the pancake and looked at Xu Mengjie and asked, "Do you know what mission your brother is carrying out this time?"

"Hey, how should I know? He told us when he left that he would be back in the next two days if nothing unexpected happened. You can ask him yourself later. If you have nothing to do, you can come to our house to find him. He will definitely have a few days of rest after returning from a business trip during the New Year's Day holiday." Xu Mengjie took a pancake from the plate handed over by Li Qingning and started eating.

"Okay, I'll just ask. There's no need to go to your house. Let him have a good rest. I'm tired from the journey and it's not a big deal." If Xu Mengjie was not there, Su Xingchen wouldn't mind going to his house to find Xu Tian, ​​but he really didn't want to go with Xu Mengjie. It's better to keep a distance from her. If he makes her unhappy, Xu Tian might do something to him.

"What's the big deal? If you want to come and see him, just come and see him. He can't rest even on vacation." Xu Mengjie said with a pout. She really hoped that Su Xingchen could come to her house. Then, wouldn't she be able to play with him?
